In the works also are these businesses, not yet named – a sandwich shop, a vitamin supplement store, a mattress company, a Mexican restaurant and a cell phone company. The developer said it’s also in negotiations with a drive-through coffee house.

More details on TowneBank coming to Wards Corner

October 13, 2012

Inside Business has an article with some new details about the planned TowneBank branch at Wards Corner.

Though still in the early design stages, Keith Horton, TowneBank senior executive vice president, said the plan is to build a free-standing retail branch of about 4,500 to 5,000 square feet. It will have an ATM, drive-through teller and night deposit station.

Construction, Horton said, will follow the construction timeline of Harris Teeter, expected to begin in April.

TowneBank chose Wards Corner for its new retail branch location, Horton said, because of the redevelopment happening there.

“It completes our market for Norfolk,” he said. “It fills a gap in the Hampton Roads community.”
